Abstract

The present invention provides selective excitation of a slab by RF signals of frequency compensated for in response to the error in the gradient magnetic field in the slice axis direction and phase encoding in the slice axis direction with the phase compensated for corresponding to the corrected frequency, in order to capture appropriate magnetic resonance signals in three dimensional scanning when there is an error in the slice gradient.
